OBJECTIVES

• TO UNDERSTAND THE EVOLUTION CHRONOLOGICAL
  DEVELOPMENT OF REPERTORY
• TO UNDERSTAND THE VARIOUS CONCEPTS
• TO UNDERSTAND THE PRESENT AND FUTURE TRENDS.
• TO MAKE THE BEST USE OF AVAILABALE LITERATURE.

5

• May The Devil Take All The Repertories. They
  destroy that which belongs together and unite
  points,which are foreign to each other, only for
  the sake of adhering to the A,b,c of childrens
  reading books. In order to be able to form a
  characteristic picture with its lights and shades
  from them, one would have to carry in ones head
  the whole Materia Medica Pura ready for use, and
  then the repertories would be of less value than
  ever.

LETTERS TO BOENNINGHAUSENBYMASTER HAHNEMANN
10
Hahnemann writes to Boenninghausen

• The repertory which was announced without my
  approval is ready, but as I have been on friendly
  terms with Arnold for 20 years , I can not look
  for another publisher.
• Life History Of Hahnemann, Richard Haehl M.D.
  vol.-II , pg. no - 263 , supplement - 124.

11
Hahnemann writes to Boenninghausen (contd)
Jan 16th,1831 My repertory was an
alphabetical record, which could only be of
great service in looking up the necessary
symptoms of medicine, if very complete, and
this perfection is not yet to be found in mine.
It is therefore not to be regretted that it
remains unpublished. Life History Of
Hahnemann , Richard Haehl , M.D. , Vol.-II
, pg. no - 263 , supplement - 124.
12
Hahnemann writes to Boenninghausen (contd)

• A dictionary of symptoms would
• occupy an efficient and very industrious
• assistant secretary, uninterruptedly for a whole
  year.
• Life History Of Hahnemann, Richard Haehl, M.D.
  ,
• Vol.-II, pg. no - 264, supplement - 124.

13
Hahnemann writes to Boenninghausen (contd)
If God permits, Jahr will workout the
symptom dictionary, and I shall contribute what I
can. He is gifted for it, and has unswerving
diligence. I think that it will have to
be printed as one large octavo dictionary , like
cramers dictionary printed by vieweg. It
will be an immense but valuable work. Life
History Of Hahnemann , Richard Haehl , M.D. ,
Vol.-II , pg. no - 264 , supplement - 124.
14
Hahnemann writes to Boenninghausen (contd.)

• If homoeopaths become aware that the
  repertories are insufficient for the finding of
  the best remedy in every case of disease,
  nevertheless they feel secure when they have such
  a key in hand and calm their minds with the
  reflection that with some probability.
• Life History Of Hahnemann , Richard Haehl
  M.D.,
• Vol.-II , pg. no - 379 , supplement - 183.

15

• Hahnemanns effort in making a Repertory
• 1805 FRAGMENTA DE VIRIBUS MEDICA MENTORUM
  POSITIVIS.
• 1817 A short Repertory hand written 4 volumes
  of repertory to use in his daily practice,
  consisting of 4239 pages with slits to hold
• 1830-32 Made a voluminous repertory, could not
  publish.

16

• It is obvious that master Hahnemann strongly felt
  the need of a repertory, developed it into an
  idea and started working in that direction, but
  for various reasons he could not publish it. So
  the profession had to look upon others for a
  useful repertory.

  of compiling repertories and during the next six
  decades, more than 30 repertories of different
  kinds were available to the practitioners.

21
BOENNINGHAUSEN ERA

  repertories, like -
• - Repertory of Characteristic symptoms
• - Nososlogical repertory
• - Alphabetical Repertory
• - Regional Repertory
• - Mechanically Aided Repertories like
• - Card Repertory

but during the last quarter of the 19th century,
the area of repertory became over crowded. This
created chaos confusion
40

• chaos confusion in the profession prepared a
  suitable ground for the emergence of a repertory,
  well organized, systematically planned , and
  based on sound philosophy. This was successfully
  accomplished by Kent in 1897.
